Weather Script

Friday, 10 April 2009
  • Author: Ccoa

Introduction

This is actually one of my oldest scripts, made back in the rmxp.net days. And yet it's still one of the most popular, right behind my UMS. Essentially, this script makes the weather "heavier" by increasing the total number of weather sprites that can be on the map at once, and gives you more variety of weather types.

The Script

 #  ccoa's weather script
#
#  Weather Types:
#    1 - rain
#    2 - storm
#    3 - snow
#    4 - hail
#    5 - rain with thunder and lightning
#    6 - falling leaves (autumn)
#    7 - blowing leaves (autumn)
#    8 - swirling leaves (autumn)
#    9 - falling leaves (green)
#   10 - cherry blossom (sakura) petals
#   11 - rose petals
#   12 - feathers
#   13 - blood rain
#   14 - sparkles
#   15 - user defined
#   16 - blowing snow
#   17 - meteor shower
#   18 - falling ash
#   19 - bubbles
#   20 - bubbles 2
#   21 - sparkles up
#
#  Weather Power:
#    An integer from 0-50.  0 = no weather, 50 = 500 sprites
#
#  Transition:
#    The number of frames to "transition" the weather in
#
#  Usage:
#    Create a call script with the following:
#       $game_screen.weather(type, power, transition)
# 
#  Usage of user-defined weather:
#    Look at the following globals:

$WEATHER_UPDATE = false   # the $WEATHER_IMAGES array has changed, please update
$WEATHER_IMAGES = []      # the array of picture names to use
$WEATHER_X = 0            # the number of pixels the image should move horizontally (positive = right, negative = left)
$WEATHER_Y = 0            # the number of pizels the image should move vertically (positive = down, negative = up)
$WEATHER_FADE = 0         # how much the image should fade each update (0 = no fade, 255 = fade instantly)
$WEATHER_ANIMATED = false # whether or not the image should cycle through all the images

Instructions

To call the new weather, just place the following in a Script event command:

$game_screen.weather(type, strength, fade)

Where type is the numerical type of the weather (see the script comments for types), strength is the strength of the weather and should be an integer between 0 (no weather) and 50 (heaviest weather), and fade is how many frames to take to fade in.

For example:

$game_screen.weather(6, 25, 0)

Will start 250 autumn leaf sprites falling down the screen. smile.gif

An explanation of user-defined weather:

$WEATHER_IMAGES - The names of the images you want to use as weather images, minus the file extensions. They should be imported as Pictures.

For example:

$WEATHER_UPDATE = true
$WEATHER_IMAGES = ["rock1", "rock2", "rock3"]


The $WEATHER_UPDATE flag tells the script that the images array has changed. You only need to set it to true if you've changed this array.

$WEATHER_X and $WEATHER_Y - the number of pixels to move the image in the x & y directions each update. For example:

$WEATHER_X = -10

Will move the image fairly fast straight up.

$WEATHER_Y = 1

Will move the image slowly to the right.

$WEATHER_X = 2
$WEATHER_Y = -1

Will move the image to the lower left.

By default, both x and y movement are 0, or no movement.

$WEATHER_FADE - this is whether or not and how much you want the image to fade out. 0 is no fade, 255 is instant fade. You may need to play with this - what looks right depends on how fast your weather image is moving. By default, this is set to 0, or no fade.

$WEATHER_ANIMATED - this flag tells the script that each weather effect should cycle through all the images (see the sparkle effect for a demo of what this looks like). Just set it to true if you want to use it:

$WEATHER_ANIMATED = true

Compatibility

Compatible with everything that I know of.

    It won't effect the script. I tested it; works fine.
